( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
In some cases I need to install modules locally - that is not as root. I use
Makefile.PL PREFIX=/home/gabor/perl5lib
and I know I will somehow have to add this directory to @INC. As I would like to use these local installation in all of my modules I decided to add the path to PERL5LIB. The problem is that it seems various modules will install themself in diferent subdirectories. So now I have the following directories in PERL5LIB:
export P5=/home/gabor/perl5lib export PERL5LIB=$P5/share/perl export PERL5LIB=$PERL5LIB:$P5/lib/perl export PERL5LIB=$PERL5LIB:$P5/share/perl/5.8 export PERL5LIB=$PERL5LIB:$P5/usr/local/share/perl/5.8.7 export PERL5LIB=$PERL5LIB:$P5/lib/perl/5.8 export PERL5LIB=$PERL5LIB:$P5/usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.7
and I fully expect that I'll have to add even more directories as I install more modules. Is there an easier way to declare all these directories?

  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
